Consider:
1) The current forecast for Saturday's game is, "High 52F. Winds SE at 15 to 25 mph. Chance of rain 90%. Rainfall around a quarter of an inch."
2) The game no longer carries bowl implications for us, and our season is mercifully coming to a close. 
3) A couple of the players that I might have liked to see one last time aren't able to play.  
4) We are massive underdogs and it could be a blowout, although somehow I don't expect it.
5) Domers will offer any price, so I could probably sell these tickets to pay for 30-50% of the cost of next year's season tickets.
6) My wife is bugging me to do something else on Saturday. (This might trump all other reasons, unfortunately.)

As a result of all of this, I am considering bailing on the game. 

On the flip side, I saw this photo and felt unable to resist one last game this season at Stanford Stadium, like a gambler or an addict that simply can't stop, even though he knows better.

Season Ticket Holders and other local fans - are you going to this game despite it all, or will you opt to watch from home, staying dry and emotionally removed after last week's agony?

You're delusional if you think Domer fans will "pay anything" for game tickets.  Game tickets will be in abundance and selling for below face (probably well below face) prior to kickoff.  Agree that 20-25K in the house is most likely amount, with well more than half rooting for ND.

Such is the state of Stanford football right now.

A bit of hyperbole there. But in 2017, I sold 4 general admission family plan tix for $400.   That softened the blow of missing a good victory for my mother-in-law’s birthday.  I know it was a different time, but we weren’t close to filling the stadium then, either. I didn’t expect the tix to fetch that price and they did.  

Now I have better tix, albeit on the sunny side and near the visitors (never again - too much sun this season!), so I think they are sellable to zealous Domers for some sort of decent price.   

I agree that as a savvy, knowledgeable buyer, one could snag tickets for next to nothing... and one could buy any seats and move anywhere.

My son has signed up for rain and we’re going to the game anyway, so it’s all moot!
